Dolphins Camp Recap

Fullback Reagan Mauia fractured the navicular bone in the wrist of his left hand and is expected to have surgery Monday.

The Hawaii product, selected in the sixth round of April's draft, injured the hand during Thursday night's 11-10 exhibition victory over the Chiefs.

While the 6-foot, 275-pound fullback practiced Saturday with a heavily padded cast and might continue to play with the injury, coach Cam Cameron said Mauia won't return to the field until the swelling goes down. Cameron also said Mauia will wear a cast for the next four to six weeks.

"It's a pretty common, pretty minor operation," Cameron said. "He'll be casted and once the swelling goes down he'll play with it."

Mauia is behind projected starter Cory Schlesinger on the depth chart. He has carried four times for 9 yards and caught two passes for 8 yards in two exhibition games.

PLAY OF THE DAY

CB Michael Lehan picked off QB Trent Green on a deep pass intended for Ted Ginn Jr. that got caught up in the wind.

FASHION STATEMENT

Two clothing items have been in vogue at training camp the past couple of weeks.

The first are aqua and orange Crocs, a clog style sandal nearly two-dozen players sport around the locker room.

"These are good for showering," OG Rex Hadnot said of his crocs. "I don't go out and try to make a fashion statement or try to dance in them or nothing."

The second is black legging that the team's injured players regularly wear during practice, and sometimes under their street clothes.

"It's a compression sleeve used for swelling," OT Anthony Alabi said while putting one over the right knee he sprained nearly two weeks ago.

CAMP OBSERVATIONS

WR Marty Booker had his most productive practice in a week, making nice moves to gain extra yardage after catches. ...

For a couple of snaps during a 9-on-9 drill the offense featured two tailbacks, with Ronnie Brown and Jesse Chatman sharing the backfield. Chatman either lined up behind Brown or next to him.

OG Chris Liwienski continues to work with the first team.

INJURY UPDATE

WR P.K. Sam, who injured his left leg during Tuesday's practice and sat out Thursday's game, returned to the practice Saturday....

T Joe Toledo has been without the soft cast that protected his broken right foot for a week, but said he's only doing light jogging. ...

LB Kelvin Smith continues to be held out of practice because of an ankle sprain.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
